Chapter 221: The Council of Churches

Centered around Nafu City, the news spread quickly to the surrounding cities.

And the church also acted very quickly, closing all the information channels to other cities in Nafu City, so as not to spread the news.

Randolph also rushed to the royal capital, and now the mission in Nafu City is no longer important, the key is how to solve this problem, not only Randolph, but all the bishopric clergy have begun to gather at the headquarters of the royal capital.

Church Interior Meeting ......

On the main seat of the conference table, the white cardinal had a black face, and he was silent and did not say a word, and the expressions of the cardinals below were not very good-looking, especially those who were affected by the spread of the news, and cold sweat had appeared on their faces.

"Randolph, tell me, what's going on?" The white cardinal clasped his hands together, his elbows resting on the table, and his body couldn't help but exude a faint coercion.

Randolph stubbornly stood up, saying that he had caused the incident.

"My lord, I think the news came from Claire......" Before Randolph could finish his sentence, the bishops at the table slapped the table and stood up.

"Smack!"

"How dare he, a little viscount!"

"How dare you provoke our church! We destroyed him! Otherwise, if this head goes down, will you dare to be disrespectful to us as long as you are a person in the future! ”

"That's right! He must be destroyed! ”

The bishops were all indignantly scolded, and they were all clamoring for Claire to be hanged.

The white cardinal's hand snapped on the table, and a loud noise was heard, "Bang! ”

"Aren't you messy enough! Shut up! If you don't move, you will destroy the other party, and if you don't wear that red robe, I thought you were a robber! The white-clad bishop's deterrent power was still there, and the bishops kept their mouths shut after this roar.

"I think in the final analysis, it's because of these things that you people provoked, otherwise I wouldn't have been caught by the other party! Homicide? Are you priests or bandits! Is this the only solution you have in mind? The white bishop was so angry that he wanted to smash the glass of water in his hand on the heads of those people.

After roaring, the white cardinal took a few breaths, put his gaze back on Randolph, and said softly, "You go on." ”

Seeing that the Pope was so angry, Randolph was also a little frightened, and rearranged what he wanted to say, so as not to appear in any words that would make the Pope unhappy.

"Ahem." Randolph coughed lightly and continued, "I don't think the other party has any intention of being tough with us......"

Before Randolph could finish speaking, a cardinal sitting across from him sneered, "He's done everything this far, and he doesn't mean to confront our church yet?" Bishop Randolph has been in Nafu for a long time, isn't he favoring him? ”

Before the white cardinal could speak, Randolph went back to himself, his good temper was just with those believers, and some bishops of the same level as himself did not have so much patience, not to mention that the other party's words were obviously ironic to himself, saying that he had become Claire's person.

"Bishop Rachel, I know that you are very unhappy that the dirty things you did have been exposed, but please don't point the finger at me, I am not a tool for you to vent your emotions!" Randolph glared into the other's eyes.

"You!" Rachel stood up angrily, stretched out his finger and pointed at Randolph's nose and scolded, "If you didn't have to mess with that Claire, would this happen!" ”

"I'm a missionary!" Randolph also stretched out his finger and pointed at the other party's nose and scolded: "This is a mission given to me by God, do you want to hinder my mission!" And you're so embarrassed to blame me! If you don't do those dirty things, there's nothing! Of all the negative news that has been exposed, you have the most in Ross City! Fish begins to rot from the head! ”

"You just came here to dare to talk to me like that, don't you? See how I teach you! Rachel rolled up his sleeves and was about to rush up to Randolph.

Randolph didn't hold back at all, and rolled up his sleeves to stand up.

"Enough!" The white cardinal slapped the conference table again, and the loud noise startled both of them.

"Isn't that a shame enough? Are the two bishops going to fight in front of me! The white cardinal looked at the two of them with a cold face, and Randolph and Rachel immediately put their sleeves away.

"Rechel sit down for me! Shut up the whole thing! The white cardinal ordered.

Rachel opened his mouth, but finally didn't say anything, sat back in his seat, and looked at Randolph who was still standing with an unkind expression.

"Randolph, you go on." The white cardinal said in a low voice, then glanced at everyone present before saying, "Shut up for me, listen to Randolph!" ”

Many of the cardinals who were affected by the news also put away their little thoughts, and no longer dared to muddy the water, so that they could get out of it.

Randolph also cleaned up his appearance a little, and then continued: "I know that Viscount Griffin, he is a very smart man, if he really wants to make a big deal about this, these negative news will not be confined to us in Nafu City, and from what I know about him, he has a way to spread this news, but he didn't do it.

So I said he was a smart guy and wouldn't be so stupid as to confront our whole church directly, didn't you notice that the news he spread was personal? They all name and name what a pastor has done, and they don't splash dirty water on our church. ”

The cardinal's eyes flashed, but he was still a little puzzled, "What do you mean by that?" ”

Randolph looked at him and said, "He's left room for redemption, let's go and settle this matter." ”

"By your say, Bishop Randolph has thought of a solution to this matter?" The whitecoat's mood was not as agitated as before.

"It's easy to solve, Pope." The corners of Randolph's mouth turned up slightly, and he felt that his head had become much brighter since he met Naclaire.

The white cardinal stretched out a hand and said softly, "Please speak." ”

"Admit your mistakes, and then take the initiative to rectify them." Randolph said word for word.

As soon as the words fell, a bishop slapped the table and stood up, but before he could finish speaking, he was stopped by the white cardinal.

"Shut up! Forget what I just said! ”

The cardinal craned his neck and sat back in his seat.

The cardinal nodded and gestured, "Randolph, go on." ”

Randolph opened his hand, faced the colleagues in the seats, and said: "I know that you think that the church cannot be wrong, and even if it is wrong, it must be the victim party, but this is a wrong idea, the church can be wrong, as long as the Lord is always right!" ”

"So the solution is to deal with all the pastors in the negative rumors, according to the canonical regulations! The results of the processing will be announced to convince the public! ”

As soon as Randolph said this, the eyes of the bishops below widened, and Rachel couldn't help but stand up again, "Do you even have to deal with me!" Do you dare! ”

Randolph ignored him, turned to look at the white cardinal, and said, "This is my solution, it is simple and effective, and it can quickly restore the lost reputation of the church, and it is also a good thing for us to sacrifice some scum in the church." ”

Rachel also looked at the white cardinal and shouted, "Your Excellency! Don't listen to him, that Claire is just a viscount, we just need to put a little pressure, maybe send someone to threaten him, let him take everything on his own! Not at all like he said! ”

Rachel was now in a hurry to die, and if he followed what Randolph said, then according to the canon, he might not be punished much, and the rest of the cardinals who were affected by the negative news also pleaded for mercy.

Randolph looked at Rachel with an idiot look on his face and mocked, "Is your head full of water?" And put pressure, if it works, then Nafu City is already under our control, you don't know how many mountains he is leaning on behind him, and there is no need to bird us at all. As for the assassination, it is even more brainless, and in this case, dare to assassinate such a nobleman as him? Don't say it's you then, none of us here will be able to escape accountability. ”

Randolph was right, in this case, Claire died, and everyone's suspicion must be on their church. Claire is a nobleman, and the most powerful people in the kingdom are also nobles, your church killed a viscount for such a thing today, will you kill the earl tomorrow? Is it going to have to be killed on my head in the end?

Therefore, if you want to kill the nobles, you can only use the law of this king, and those nobles will not give the church the right to kill a nobleman at will, if this power is given, then the church will become a sword of Damocles above their heads.

The two sides began a new round of arguments, but the white cardinal lowered his head and thought about it, and only after dozens of seconds did he slowly speak.

"Leave this matter to Randolph."
